Continuous Security Testing
Angel Force offers our Continuous Testing Service to our clients. This is a dynamic, efficient service that helps with risk management. This is a different approach to regular penetration testing. While most organisations test their external perimeter once a year, there are risks that can change throughout the year. Clients are often unaware of the risks they face throughout the year because their networks change and new attacks and risks are discovered.
Requirements, process, and benefits
Large organisations often find it difficult to manage the large amounts of information provided by modern Penetration Testing. Teceze Continuous Testing Service conducts a thorough penetration test to establish a baseline. The client can set the speed at which all changes are being monitored, whether it is weekly, daily or monthly. These changes are then manually tested before they are published.
What is Continuous Security Testing?
Continuous Security Testing (CST), is a method of validating security flaws in web applications and IT infrastructure. Continuous assessment is an effective way to improve your organization’s security posture. CST regularly assesses your security controls to detect any potential security vulnerabilities that could potentially affect your organization’s liability. Security testing is performed continuously in the event of new cyber threats and risks. Your web applications and IT infrastructure should be protected from all new cyber threats. This will reduce the attack surface of your organization and allow you to patch security holes. Continuous security testing with automated testing tools and methods is a way to achieve this.
Why Continuous Security Testing is so Important
Cybercriminals are becoming more and more aware of cyberattacks and other cyber incidents. It is important to ensure that your organization is safe. Cyber-attacks can happen anywhere and anytime in the world. Ask yourself: What makes your company unique enough to prevent cybercriminals from stealing it? This is Continuous Security Testing.
Each organization should be aware of its security status and be willing to take the necessary steps in order to improve their web applications’ and infrastructure security. Continuous Security Testing (CST) is a method of continuously monitoring and optimizing security controls. Automated tools are used to perform the process, including automated testing tools and Breach and Attack simulation tools. Continuous security testing is essential to ensure your organization’s protection against new threats that emerge every day and minimize the risk to your organization.
